HI Tim

I thoroughly enjoy Sean's podcast. I listen to it during my hour long, 13 mile commute. I'm just coming into the career field from something similar and have been looking all over for something like this to help point me in the right direction.

I think Sean hits the mark and truly understands what topics people want to know about.

Overall, this is an excellent, worthy podcast of your time.

Good Topics to Peak your interest

Good source of information. A couple of nits: Sound quality is very uneven. One side of a conversation is barely audible so you turn it up; then the other side blows out your eardrums! The length is generally less around 10 minutes. Sometimes, not enough time spent on the topic. Would like to see them direct you to their website for more details.
